DevTest agent compatibility when upgrading

  • 1.  DevTest agent compatibility when upgrading

    Posted Sep 14, 2018 02:05 AM

    Hello,

     

    We are upgrading from DevTest 10.1 to version 10.3.

    Our services (registry, portal, broker, vse) will be automaticaly upgraded all together.

     

    After that, the agents have to be upgraded manually, depending on the availability of user/team.

     

    Can you tell me if a DevTest agent 10.1 will work with a Broker in version 10.3 ?

     

    Best regards,

     

    Benoit

    Hi Benoit, 

     

    In general you need to upgrade the agents as soon as possible. 
    Any kind of changes in the message structure between the agent and the broker could cause problems.

    However for 10.1 -> 10.3, I do not believe there have been major changes to the messages (there may be a few minor changes).

    In summary, for these two versions, upgrading is not critical but should be done as soon as possible.

    Also if you need supports assistance, then upgrading will be required.

     

    Best Regards,
